Our Practice Areas

Litigation

Aggressive and Results-Oriented Representation 

When a difficult and intractable conflict cannot be resolved easily, you need litigators who are focused, aggressive and results-oriented. We take the time to understand your business or personal situation, listen to your objectives, and then develop the best strategy to achieve your goals. Our attorneys have many years of experience,  maintain a highly sophisticated practice, and represent clients in all areas of litigation before state and federal courts and government agencies.  

Whether you are faced with a complex, high-stakes business dispute or are involved in a smaller-scale conflict, we are committed to providing vigorous representation in all types of civil, commercial, and criminal matters. Additionally, our experienced appellate practice has the unique skills and strategies required to mount a successful appeal, whether to preserve a favorable result or overturn an adverse ruling. We incorporate this expertise from the outset to effectively craft our strategies and arguments for trial. 

In certain circumstances, alternative dispute resolution (ADR) might be appropriate to resolve your conflict. Our ADR team is skilled in such techniques as mediation and arbitration, and you can learn more about our ADR expertise here.  

Cost-effective Dispute Resolution  

Our strong bench of seasoned trial lawyers represents individuals, groups, as well as public and private businesses, either as plaintiffs or defendants. Every case has partner involvement, and whether you currently work with the firm, or have been referred by another attorney, we are equally committed to your success. Our experience spans a broad range of industries including: 

  • Education  
  • Construction 
  • Real Estate 
  • Professional Services
  • Private Equity 
  • Venture Capital 
  • Hospitality 
  • Health Care 
  • Nonprofit Organizations 
  • Technology 
  • Insurance   

Fierce Advocates 

Our litigators have extensive trial court experience in the state and federal courts and substantial appellate experience. We regularly appear before the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, the Massachusetts Appeals Court, and the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, as well as courts in other states. . Members of the team are consistently recognized in Best Lawyers in America, Massachusetts Super Lawyers®, Boston Magazine’s Top Lawyers, and Chambers USA.
